All About The Pink Baby

Pink is for Girls I say. Check out this cute baby card.

I started off with a pink card.

Then I added this way cute baby paper with circles and butterflies on it. Inked it of course

I added my embellishment to some pink ribbon and put it on the butterfly and circle paper.

I cut a half circle of the lined paper, inked it and put it on the left side of the card.

I then stamped BABY on some soft pink paper and added that to the lined paper with some pop up dots.

On top of that I added two pink buttons with green ribbon tied on it.

Miracle of a Baby Card

Tis the season for babies.  Make this cute card to give to the mommy at the next baby shower you go to.

I started off with a pink paper punched the scalloped edge and inked it.

I added some way cute yellow, pink and white stripped paper torn to the middle of the paper.

On top of that I added some big pink ribbon tied off with white twine.

Then I stamped the way cute elephant on some white paper and matted it with pink and brown paper.

If you notice I used some clear gel glue that dries puffy and shiny to the ear of the elephant. Such a way cute touch don’t you think?

I stapled the elephant embellishment with an X and adhered that to the card.

To top it off I stamped Miracle in the bottom right hand corner.

Halloween Boo Blocks – Craft

We made the CUTEST holiday blocks. Modge Podging is soooo much fun. Now is the best time to start making holiday gifts and decor.

Here’s the CUTE craft blocks we made. I am not quite sure which one is Stephanie’s Monica’s or mine but didn’t they turn out way cute?

We took 4X4 blocks and painted them black.

Then we added Halloween paper to each block with Modge Podge. LOVE that stuff!!

We cut out the BOO! with the Cricut and put the letters on each block.

After that we decorated each block with embellishments.

They turned out so CUTE!!!

On the other side of the blocks you can do EEK! so you can put it in the middle of a table and each side can be Haloweenie

But wait there’s more…

You turn the blocks over and they say JOY! for the holidays. Now how ingenious is that?

I hope you enjoyed these cute blocks.

Giraffe’s are so CUTE for baby stuff this year. These stamps are absolutely adorable! Thanks Monica for letting me use your stamps for this card.

This is a way cute card too. I LOVE them!!!

I started off with a pink square card with corners rounded with my We R Memory Makers corner rounder and inked on the edges.

I added some girl paper with circles and flowers.

Then I added another piece of paper with pink, green and white stripes with a torn edge at the top and you guess it… inked of course.

On top of that I added some brown ribbon with an embellishment hanging from it.

I then stamped this way cute giraffe on white paper with brown ink and adhered that to the green paper and then to the card on top of the ribbon.

The final step was to add the glossy accents to the giraffe’s spots.
